Suriya and Nazriya Nazim’s Roles in Scene
Suriya plays DSP Inbaraj, an unconventional, chain-smoking police officer credited with 900 criminal arrests. Fans of the Singam films will notice the familiar rank, but Inbaraj is a far more relaxed and comic cop.
Nazriya Nazim plays Maya, Inbaraj’s house help, according to The Hollywood Reporter India. Naslen, who makes his Tamil debut, plays Eeswaran, a cold-blooded killer.

Scene Story and Trailer
The trailer opens with Inbaraj resigning from the J4 police station, leaving his colleagues stunned. His superior tries to bring him back, but Inbaraj is busy enjoying life at home and even talks about entering politics.
Then Maya walks into his life, and Eeswaran appears, hinting at a clash that pulls Inbaraj back into uniform. The official synopsis says Inbaraj must reopen a case he left unfinished years ago, with a chaotic and troublesome team.
Why Nazriya’s Tamil Return Matters
Scene marks Nazriya Nazim’s return to Tamil cinema after more than a decade. She became a favourite of Tamil audiences with Raja Rani, Neram and Naiyaandi in 2013, before focusing on Malayalam films.
Fans had hoped to see Suriya and Nazriya together earlier. Sudha Kongara’s Suriya 43 had announced both in 2023, but that project was later shelved. Scene finally brings the pair on screen.
Jithu Madhavan’s First Tamil Film
Jithu Madhavan directed the Malayalam hits Romancham (2023) and Aavesham (2024), the second starring Nazriya’s husband Fahadh Faasil. Scene is his first Tamil film, and he has called it a “proper Tamil film.”
His regular team is on board: music by Sushin Shyam, editing by Ajmal Sabu and cinematography by Vineeth Augustian. Dravid Selvam wrote the Tamil dialogues.
